Singapore law requires a disclosure that a psychology qualification is not a medical or dental qualification.
Wei Jie graduated with a Bachelor of Social Sciences in Psychology and a Master of Psychology (Clinical) from the National University of Singapore (NUS). He is a registered psychologist specialising in psychotherapy for children, adolescents, and adults facing mood and anxiety disorders, including depression, generalised anxiety, panic disorder, and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Wei Jie utilises a variety of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness-based techniques.
In addition to his work with mood and anxiety disorders, Wei Jie provides interventions for individuals with neurodevelopmental conditions, including Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and intellectual disability. He employs specific evidence-based strategies for clients with ASD such as visual and structured teaching, social stories, and comic strip conversations. He also addresses puberty and sexuality concerns for adolescents with ASD.
Previously, Wei Jie served as a clinical psychologist within a multidisciplinary team at the Institute of Mental Health's child and adolescent specialist clinic. His experience includes employing systemic and developmental approaches to support young clients. His therapeutic work involves direct intervention with individuals, equipping parents with the skills to better understand their children, and collaborating with stakeholders, such as schools, to enhance care. He is also open to supporting young clients with conduct or oppositional behaviours.
Wei Jie conducts diagnostic assessments for autism spectrum disorder, utilizing gold-standard tools such as the Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised (ADI-R) and the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule – Second Edition (ADOS-2). He also performs cognitive and adaptive functioning assessments necessary for applications to special education schools, including the WISC-V, WAIS-IV, CTONI, and Vineland-3.
Believing in the importance of authenticity, Wei Jie strives to create a safe and genuine therapeutic environment. He emphasizes building strong rapport with clients to ensure effective therapeutic interventions, guiding them toward achieving their envisioned mental and emotional well-being.
In his personal time, Wei Jie enjoys spending time with his 6-year-old Shiba Inu dog, Katsu, and has recently taken up indoor gardening, which allows him to connect with nature and cultivate mindfulness.
Wei Jie offers therapy both in person and online. He is fluent in English and Mandarin.
